Perhaps most important for safety is that the pressure is also reduced going from hot to cold shutdown. At the cooler shutdown it is less likely to undergo pressurized thermal shock and catastrophic failure of the reactor pressure vessel. At the hot shutdown it is more likely to undergo pressurized thermal shock and catastrophic failure of the reactor pressure vessel (RPV). Hot Shutdown is 200-300 F and Cold Shutdown is 200 degrees F or less.

You pretend that you are increasing safety at Arkansas One, all while decreasing risk! One death at Arkansas One wasn't enough for you?
